The potter's quarters of ancient Greece. Located near the entrance to the Dipylon (double gate) of the Athenian agora, this area was once home to a number of potters. Adjacent to this area is an ancient cemetery. In modern times, pottery and ceramics have come to be known collectively as ceramics (English: ceramic, German: Keramik), but the word comes from Kerameikos or Keramikos. The Kerameikos cemetery was used as a public cemetery for Athens for almost 1,000 years, from the end of the Mycenaean period in the 12th century BC to the Classical period, especially from the 6th century BC onwards.

古代ギリシアの陶工区。アテナイのアゴラの玄関ディピュロン(二重門)の入口近くにあり,往時は陶工が軒を連ねていた地区。これと隣接してその外側に古代墓地がある。近代以降ヨーロッパでは陶芸・窯業を総称してセラミック(英語=ceramic,ドイツ語=Keramik)と呼んでいるが,その語源はこのケラメイコスもしくはケラミコスkeramikosに由来する。ケラメイコスの墓地は前12世紀のミュケナイ時代末期から古典時代のほぼ1000年にわたり,とくに前6世紀以降はアテナイの公共の墓地として使用された。
